Michael Jerome Reece-Page[1][2] (born 7 April 1987), is a British kickboxer, boxer, and mixed martial artist .[3][4] He is recognised in the MMA community for his unorthodox fighting style, which originated from freestyle kickboxing (points fighting) and sport karate.[5][6] As of October 19, 2021, he is #9 in the Bellator men's pound-for-pound rankings and is #1 in the Bellator Welterweight Rankings.[7]

Early life

Page was born in St Mary's Hospital, London to Curtis Page Sr. and Pauline Reece, who were both Lau Gar kung fu practitioners.[8] His father, a British Telecom employee, hailed from Trinidad while his mother, a nurse, was from Jamaica.[3][4][9][10] Page is a maternal nephew of Lau Gar Master Stan Brown, who was also the instructor of his father.[11][12] He has nine siblings, three of whom are adopted.[13] Page attended Quintin Kynaston School in St John's Wood, alongside Olympian judoka Ashley McKenzie.[14][15] He grew up in NW8 near Edgware Road and Lisson Green before moving to W10 near Queen's Park in 2003.[11][14][16] Since almost everyone in his family was involved in martial arts, he felt it was natural to follow suit.[17][18]

Kickboxing career

His father, Curtis Page Sr. was his instructor.[17][19] Of his nine siblings, his sister Sefena and brothers Curtis Jr., Jamie, and Kalon are also kickboxing champions.[3][20][21]

Page began training in Lau Gar at the age of 3 and competed at his first kickboxing tournament at the age of 5.[22][23][24] By the age of 8, he began to devote himself to competition and entered his first international tournament in Germany.[12][25]

Page won 10 world championships in kickboxing – his first was at the US Open ISKA World Martial Arts Championships 1998[26] in Orlando, Florida[12] when he was 12 years old[27] – and was crowned British champion over 25 times.[28] By the age of 13, Page started entering adult competitions.[12][18][29] To prepare, he would train five hours a day for five days a week.[30] During tournament days he would often fight up to 14 times due to competing in three weight classes, and at one point fought 22 times in a day across five weight classes.[31] Another world title win was at the W.A.K.O. World Championships 2007 (Coimbra) where, at the −89 kg semi-contact division, he won gold after defeating Dave Heffernan.[32][33] He also competed at the W.A.K.O. Austrian Classics Worldcup 2008 (Kufstein), winning gold in the −84 kg semi-contact division over Krisztián Jároszkievicz.[34][35] Page participated at the W.A.K.O. Irish Open 2008 (Dublin), earning silver in the −84 kg semi-contact division after falling short to Raymond Daniels.[36] Page then won gold at the W.A.K.O. Austrian Classics Worldcup 2009 (Walchsee), placing first in both the −84 kg light-contact and semi-contact divisions, defeating Bojan Miskovic and Zvonimir Gribl respectively.[37][38] Page returned to participate in the W.A.K.O. Irish Open 2009 (Dublin) but was defeated by Raymond Daniels, placing second in the −84 kg semi-contact division.[39] Page – appointed as the WKA Head Coach[40] – led a team to the WKA World Championships 2009 (Huelva), defeating James Benjamin Stewart to claim gold in the organisation's first semi-contact prize competition[41] and bronze in the −90 kg light-contact division, upon being bested by Tarek Haydar.[1][2] He then participated in the W.A.K.O. World Championships 2009 (Lignano Sabbiadoro) and finished second in the −84 kg semi-contact division, after being defeated by Krisztián Jároszkievicz.[42] On 4 September 2010, he competed at the World Combat Games 2010 (Beijing) in the −84 kg semi-contact division, where he earned silver, losing gold to Krisztián Jároszkievicz.[43][44] Page fought Raymond Daniels at the W.A.K.O. Irish Open 2011 (Dublin), securing silver in the −84 kg semi-contact division.[6]

Page was scouted by the Great Britain Taekwondo team to train and qualify for the Olympics but turned it down to pursue a professional combat sports career.[45]

When not competing Page trains others in kickboxing, primarily as an instructor at the Hands Down Martial Arts Academies throughout Surrey.[46]

Mixed martial arts career

Background

Dissatisfied with the lack of exposure[47] as well as the politics[48] involved in competing among various kickboxing associations, Page decided to cross over into mixed martial arts.[49][50] He initially considered going to American Top Team[51] during his transition into MMA since his older siblings live in Miami[17] but chose to start his career with London Shootfighters[52] in July 2011,[53] training with the likes of John Hathaway, Cláudio da Silva, Karlos Vemola,[54] Alex Reid,[55] Marcin Held,[56] Jim Wallhead,[57] and Marc Diakiese.[58] Page also sparred with Alexander Gustafsson,[59] James DeGale,[60] Che Mills,[61] Chris Eubank, Jr.,[60] Frank Muñoz,[62] Dereck Chisora, Muhammed Lawal,[63] Andrew Tate,[64] Darren Stewart,[65] Karl Amoussou,[66] Johnny Walker,[67] Filip Verlinden,[68] Harut Grigorian,[69] Gegard Mousasi,[62] Neil Magny,[62] and Artur Kyshenko.[70] He entertained the possibility of fighting at lightweight.[71] Page spends up to seven hours training in the gym, and does not undergo IV therapy after cutting weight.[72][73] He cross-trains Brazilian jiu-jitsu at Gracie Barra.[74] Page is represented by Paradigm Sports Management.[75][76]

UCMMA

Page made his MMA debut at UCMMA 26 against Ben Dishman on 4 February 2012 and won via technical knockout from a first round tornado kick.[77] His original opponent Sam Boo withdrew a day before the fight.[78][79] The fight went viral and comparisons were drawn between Page and Anderson Silva.[80][81][82] He was paid £200 for the bout.[83]

On 7 April 2012, Page faced Miguel Bernard at UCMMA 27 in a 176 lb catchweight bout despite weighing in at 165 lb.[84] Page won in the first round after forcing Bernard to tap out upon transitioning from a triangle choke into an armbar.[85]

Page briefly returned to kickboxing when he fought in a UK-1 bout on 18 August 2012 at UCMMA 29. Page was supposed to challenge UCMMA UK-1 welterweight champion Peter Irving for the belt.[86][87] However, Irving pulled out of the fight due to a neck injury[11] and was replaced by Jefferson George after another three opponents dropped out within a month for undisclosed reasons.[88][89] Page won after knocking out George from a two punch combination in the second round.[90]

Super Fight League

On 24 June 2012, Super Fight League announced that they signed Michael Page[91] to an exclusive year and a half, four-fight contract.[92]

Page made his promotional debut on 2 November 2012 at SFL 7 as the main event against Haitham El-Sayed, winning by technical knockout in round one via doctor stoppage due to cuts.[93]

Page returned to Super Fight League on 12 April 2013 to face Ramdan Mohamed at SFL 15 as the main event and won via rear-naked choke in the first round.[94]

Bellator MMA

2013

After winning his UK-1 fight against Jefferson George, Page announced post-fight that he signed a five-fight contract with Bellator MMA, and that he will fight for both Bellator and Super Fight League under their respective contracts.[95][96]

Page was expected to make his promotional debut at Bellator 82 but pulled out of the bout citing surgery for an old jaw injury.[97][98][99] Another potential yet unannounced debut at Bellator 90 against Sean Powers was cancelled for undisclosed reasons.[100]

Page made his debut on 21 March 2013 at Bellator 93.[101] He faced Ryan Sanders and won via knockout at 10 seconds into the first round.[102]

Page was scheduled to fight Kenny Ento at Bellator 102[103] but withdrew due to a rib cartilage injury,[104][105] an ankle injury,[106] and a knee injury.[107] A later appearance slated for Bellator 109 against Andrew Osborne was also cancelled because of lingering injuries.[108]

2014

Page was slated to fight Fight Master: Bellator MMA contestant Marcus Aurelio at Bellator 120 on 17 May 2014 but Aurelio withdrew due to injury.[54][109] Ricky Rainey was immediately sought as a replacement after his Bellator 116 victory[110] and was informed of his opponent a week later.[111] Page won via technical knockout in the first round.[112]

Page next faced Nah-Shon Burrell at Bellator 128 as the co-main event on 10 October 2014.[113] He won via unanimous decision.[114]

On 19 December 2014, Michael Page confirmed that he was no longer contracted with Super Fight League and instead signed an exclusive two year, five-fight contract extension with Bellator.[13][115]

2015

Page was expected to face Curtis Millender at Bellator 134.[116] However, Page pulled out of the fight due to a cut over his left eye which was sustained during a guard passing drill[117] and required six stitches.[118] He was replaced by Brennan Ward.[119]

Page faced Rudy Bears at Bellator 140 on 17 July 2015.[120] He won by knockout in the first round.[121]

Page fought Charlie Ontiveros at Bellator 144 on 23 October 2015 with less than three weeks' notice after four opponents – including his initial opponent Marius Žaromskis[122] and later Cristiano Souza[123] – pulled out of the fight for undisclosed reasons.[124] Page won via verbal submission due to elbows in the first round after dislocating Ontiveros' jaw.[125][126][127]

2016

He was expected to fight Fernando Gonzalez at Bellator 151 as the co-main event[128] but withdrew from the bout as he was already committed to officiate at the W.A.K.O. Irish Open 2016 (Dublin)[129] as coach of the Top Ten UK team.[130] He was replaced by Gilbert Smith.[131]

Page defeated Jeremie Holloway at Bellator 153 on 22 April 2016, submitting him with an Estima lock in round one.[132][133][134]

Page's fight with Fernando Gonzalez was rescheduled[135] for Bellator 158 on 16 July 2016 but visa issues forced Gonzalez to withdraw.[136] Page accepted a contract to fight Paul Daley after Josh Koscheck withdrew but Daley chose to fight Douglas Lima instead.[137] Page fought Evangelista Santos[citation needed] and won by knocking out Santos with a flying knee in the second round.[138] Santos underwent surgery afterwards due to a depressed frontal sinus fracture.[139] The fight went viral partly due to the Pokémon Go-inspired post-fight celebration.[140]

In July 2016, Bellator claimed that Page re-signed[141] with the promotion and had four fights left on his contract.[142] However, Page stated that he did not re-sign but had two fights left from existing contractual provisions.[143]

Page fought Fernando Gonzalez on 19 November 2016 at Bellator 165 as the co-main event.[144] He won the fight via split decision.[145]

2017

A proposed bout between Page and Paul Daley was targeted for Bellator 179 but negotiations fell through after Daley chose to fight Rory MacDonald instead.[146] Page was supposed to fight Derek Anderson[147] but an old knee injury[148][149] and neck injury forced him off the card.[150] Daley attempted to brawl with Page after losing his fight.[151] Another fight with Daley was proposed for September 2017 in London but was turned down by Daley, who instead opted to fight Lorenz Larkin at Bellator 183.[152][153]

Page was expected to compete at Bellator 191 but a fight was never announced.[154]

2018

Bellator attempted to match Page against Daley on 9 March 2018 but negotiations stalled when Daley refused to commit to the date.[155]

Page fought David Rickels on 25 May 2018 at Bellator 200 as the co-main event.[156] He won the fight via verbal submission due to a punch in the second round that opened a cut above Rickels' left eye.[157][158] He spent a portion of his training camp at Straight Blast Gym - Ireland in preparation for the fight.[159] He paid tribute to his cousin Helena Ramsay, a victim of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, during the open workout and post-fight interview.[160][161]

On 30 July 2018, Page confirmed signing a new six-fight contract with Bellator, three for the tournament and three as part of the champion clause.[162] The contract will let him box, subject to Bellator's approval.[163]

2019

Page faced Paul Daley in the quarter-final of the Bellator Welterweight World Grand Prix Tournament on 16 February 2019 at Bellator 216.[164][165] He won by unanimous decision, in an uneventful fight in which neither fighter was able to mount any significant offence.[166][167] His father died prior to the fight on 26 December 2018.[168][169]

Page fought former two-time Bellator Welterweight World Champion Douglas Lima in the semi-final of the welterweight tournament on 11 May 2019 at Bellator 221.[170] Despite having some initial success, Page lost the fight via knockout in the second round.[171]

Page faced Richard Kiely at Bellator 227 as the co-main event on 27 September 2019.[172] He won the fight via knockout from a flying knee in the first round.[173]

Page was expected to headline Bellator London 2 against Derek Anderson on 23 November 2019 but Anderson withdrew for undisclosed reasons on 12 November 2019.[174][175] Page instead fought Giovanni Melillo and won by knockout in the first round.[176][177]

On 29 December 2019, Page fought Shinsho Anzai at Bellator & Rizin: Japan in a 173 lb catchweight bout.[178] He won by knockout in the second round.[179]

2020

Page faced Ross Houston at Bellator 248 on 10 October 2020. He won the bout via unanimous decision. [180]

2021

Page faced Derek Anderson at Bellator 258 on 7 May 2021. Page was supposed to fight Anderson twice before at Bellator 179 and Bellator London 2. [181]During the first round, Page broke and flattened Anderson's nose with a kick, leading to the doctor stopping the fight between rounds.[182]

Page faced Douglas Lima in a rematch on 1 October 2021 at Bellator 267, Bellator's first card in the U.K. since the COVID-19 pandemic.[183] He won the bout via split decision.[184]

Boxing career

On 12 July 2017, it was announced that Page signed a three-year, fifteen-fight contract[185] with Hayemaker Ringstar, a promotional joint venture of David Haye and Richard Schaefer.[186] Page began training under the tutelage of Ismael Salas at Hayemaker HQ on 27 July 2017,[187] alongside Joe Joyce, Qais Ashfaq, and Willy Hutchinson.[188] While he still trains at London Shootfighters, he spends four days a week training at Hayemaker HQ.[189][190] Page compared the transition from MMA to boxing to a "sprinter turning into a long distance runner."[191] He did commentary for Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor in Las Vegas with Mike Costello and Steve Bunce on BBC Radio 5 Live.[192]

Page made his boxing debut on 20 October 2017 at Hayemaker Ringstar Fight Night against Jonathan Castano as the co-main event.[193] He won via technical knockout in the third round.[194] He was supposed to debut on the undercard of Haye vs. Bellew but was still negotiating with Bellator at the time.[189]

Page wanted to fight at Hayemaker Ringstar Fight Night 2 on 16 February 2018 but Bellator wanted an MMA fight scheduled before allowing him to commit to another boxing fight.[195][196]

He was expected to fight on the undercard of Haye vs. Bellew II but Bellator prevented him from competing due to its proximity to Bellator 200.[197][198]

Page fought at Hayemaker Ringstar Fight Night 3 against Michal Ciach on 15 June 2018.[199] He won by knockout in the second round.[200]

Fighting style

Page describes his discipline as a "hands down kickboxing style" created from a "mishmash" of taekwondo, karate, and kung fu styles competing under a points scoring ruleset.[201][202][203] As a low-volume movement-based fighter his game plan revolves around controlling distance and landing heavy counterstrikes with high accuracy.[204][205] He relies on his elusive movement and knockout power to finish opponents and often engages in histrionics while fighting to maintain focus, unnerve his opponents, and rile up the crowd.[11][206][207] Page credited Curtis Page Sr., Pauline Reece, Simon Lewis, and Marvin Francis as being the most influential in his combat sports career.[72][86]

Personal life

Page received the moniker "Venom" from fellow kickboxer Marvin Francis in homage of the film Five Deadly Venoms.[40][208]

He became a Pollo-pescetarian in August 2017.[209][210]
